I was alone and sickly
It was a quarter of a moonlit night
I heard him cry through my window shade
And it filled me so full of fright

But i could not turn my back on him
I put on the back porch light
"can i help you?" said the good samaritan
"can i help you?" said the good samaritan

I brought him bread and a blanket
But i told him, "you can't come in"
You can sleep outside in the tool shed
Though a little rain comes in

Oh, i don't know you, you're a stranger
I don't know where you've been
"you can't come in here," said the keeper of the inn
"i don't want you in here," said the keeper of the inn

But i couldn't sleep for the thinking
You know my night got so insane
I thought, maybe he was an angel
And i left him out in the rain

And what if he was the devil
He'd be coming after me again
But when i woke in the weary morning he was gone
When i woke in the weary morning he was gone

I thought maybe he was an angel
And i left him out in the rain
And what if he was the devil
He'd be coming after me again

When i woke in the weary morning, he was gone
When i woke in the weary morning, lord, he was gone
